Baked Pesto Chicken


I needed a quick meal tonight and one with very few ingredients since our cupboards are quite bare! This meal was easy, quick, and tasty! (Pic to come)

INGREDIENTS:

* 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
* 1/2 cup Pesto with Basil
* 2 tomatoes, sliced (optional)
* 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line baking sheet with heavy-duty foil.
2. Place chicken and pesto in medium bowl; toss to coat. Place chicken on prepared baking sheet.
3. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink in center. Remove from oven; top with tomatoes and cheese. Bake for an additional 3 to 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.

For just coming up with an idea this was a great recipe! My hubby also decided to take leftovers to work... the chicken in a wrap with lettuce added! Thanks for your great recipes... this is a great site!

This will be part of our Christmas Eve dinner tonight. Hoped to make Russian tea cakes too but ran out of energy so maybe in the morning I'll get those made. ;)
